The Town of Charlton Recreation Commission voted to donate funds to purchase an AED for the youth football program.
Pats moved that the commission donate the cost of an AED (transcribed estimate $2,158.95) via the commission's Amazon account. Chair seconded the motion and the vote was unanimous. Pats framed the purchase as a critical safety measure for practices and games: "...we purchased the AED for the football...it adds to it as far as even for practices and stuff as well if it's needed." Chair clarified that the AED does not obviate the league's requirement to provide EMT coverage at home games.
The commission directed staff to proceed with the purchase through the Amazon account and to coordinate storage and ownership logistics so the AED is available for practices and events.
